Why not slow down?

Why does it have to be frenetic? Why not just slow down? I suppose you could, but I don’t recommend it. It’s just such a miserable experience to spend your day close-reading LLM output: carefully chewing and savoring each morsel of slop. It’s far less unpleasant to skim through quickly and pick out the useful nuggets of content.

Couldn’t you simply do more of the work by hand? It’s unfortunately true that tech is high-pressure these days. If you’ve got the time and space to work more slowly, that’s great! But when your company gives you a “solve this task ten times more quickly” button, you are heavily incentivized to use it as much as possible, or risk being outcompeted by your peers.

Damn...

If someone asks you a question, paste your answer — not the chatbot's.

Закат ABBYY — это фиксация проигрыша последней битвы лингвистов за автоматическую обработку языка. Мир Data Science победил. Главный редактор «Системного Блока» Даниил Скоринкин, работавший ABBYY в 2013–2017, подводит итоги и пытается сформулировать уроки из этой истории, начало которой — еще в 1990-х годах. С мемасами и метафорами.

Arm yourself with knowledge

Recently, there has been considerable interest in large language models: machine learning systems which produce human-like text and dialogue. Applications of these systems have been plagued by persistent inaccuracies in their output; these are often called “AI hallucinations”. We argue that these falsehoods, and the overall activity of large language models, is better understood as bullshit in the sense explored by Frankfurt (On Bullshit, Princeton, 2005): the models are in an important way indifferent to the truth of their outputs. We distinguish two ways in which the models can be said to be bullshitters, and argue that they clearly meet at least one of these definitions. We further argue that describing AI misrepresentations as bullshit is both a more useful and more accurate way of predicting and discussing the behaviour of these systems.
